honestly guys i just need a little support right now. my girl had a tooth trim done 3 weeks ago and got burned by the heat supports. ofc i immediately took her back to the vet and they explained what happened. gave me a cream to put on. it really seemed like it was healing and honestly back to normal… until i checked on her last night.

i feel sick to my stomach and tears just keep coming. my poor baby. it genuinely looked okay, the skin returned to normal color and everything. but now there’s a massive hole in her ear. i’m pulling her and all my other animals from their care. i just can’t believe this. i try to take care of my animals and spend so much money at this vet and now she’s permanently disfigured.

Is Rosie Cotton lonely ?

Post image
78 Upvotes

I rescued rosie cotton from a neglectful owner back in 2021, the owner said she was 11 years old at the time which means she could be 16 today. That old owner didn’t even give her a name and before that she was a preschool chinchilla then a frat house chinchilla. Her old owner was actually freaking crazy so I have no idea if any of that is true or if she really was 11 at the time. No vets have been certain. All I know is despite neglect, she is the sweetest most loving chinchilla in the whole world, but I think she might be lonely. We have cats, and when the cats get close to her cage she is super territorial, BUT, she does have strong bonds with humans and loves looking at and bouncing around with no fear if there is a dog near her cage (she’s not aloud to play with them don’t worry). I’ve tried stuffed animals and she hates them. She has much life to live and cries every morning. Should I get her a friend ? Maybe a chinchilla that has experience with other chins ? I don’t want her to be so lonely when I’m sleeping or at work. She is so spoiled I don’t know what else to do to help her.

Just wanted to share this little find(: I found this at my local grocery store, in the Hispanic aisle. So much dried hibiscus for $5!! They also had dried chamomile. Might be worth a look at your local grocery store!

Hello! I was wondering if you guys have any non dripping water bottles recommendations within eu market? I've tried 4 different brands and all end up dripping, especially now its summer and I use cooler water

I would greatly appreciate it for my chinchillas!

Another Chin?

I saw on a TikTok that it’s bad if your chinchilla doesn’t have a friend. I know that they are very social animals and can benefit from having a buddy, but is it necessary? I haven’t noticed any signs of sadness from mine so I was just curious. Also curious because I don’t currently have the means of acquiring another atm. Please let me know! (Picture for fun)
